Hachimaki
A hachimaki (鉢巻) is a stylised headband, usually made of red or white cloth, worn as a symbol of perseverance or effort, originating in Japan. These are worn on many occasions, for example, by women giving birth, students in cram school, office workers, expert tradesmen taking pride in their work, and even rioters.
